SINGER: Mary Chapin Carpenter

SONG:Why Walk When You Can Fly

In this world there's a whole lot of trouble baby
in this world there's a whole lot of pain
in this world there's a whole lot of trouble but
a whole lot of ground to gain
why take when you could be giving
why watch as the world goes by
it's a hard enough life to be living
why walk when you can fly
In this world there's a whole lot of sorrow
in this world there's a whole lot of shame
in this world there's a whole lot of sorrow
and a whole lot of ground to gain
when you spend you whole life wishing
wanting and wondering why
it's a long enough life to be living
why walk when you can fly
And in this world there's a whole lot of golden
in this world there's a whole lot of pain
in this world you've a soul for a compass
and a heart for a pair of wings
there's a star on the far horizon
rising bright in an azure sky
for the rest of the time that you're given
why walk when you can fly
